So basically you have local spawn points, however many there may be, a nearby facility, and the foothold.
That's a lot of spawn options but it doesn't exaclty allow you to spawn on another front - you'd still have to get a vehicle at the facility or foothold (whichever was closer) and then drive/fly to that front.

Well, there is a point to this once we get it all fleshed out, though I've lost track of it since I've been to the gym for the past hour. So here's the question I ask you: As you have confirmed "
it doesn't exaclty allow you to spawn on another front", none of those options you list confirm that you can logout/die at one place in the game world, and then directly respawn at any
owned and fully secured base in the game world. Then question then is,
should a player be able to do that? Or, in order to change your operating area, should you always have to respawn at the foothold/home base/etc first?
I'm trying to put a very very fine and specific point on this, a point which I do not believe has been discussed though it probably has, like everything else...but the ultimate consequence of what I'm saying is, if word gets out that a certain base is under attack, should people be able to immediately choose to respawn there for defense? Or, to immediately spawn at a front line base to form up for an offensive? You see, when I was plugging my idea for "a limit on the number of people that can spawn at any one base at any given time", I was not realizing that there was ALREADY a limit on that by the simple fact that you have to respawn at your foothold/etc and then take transport to your final destination.
